Review of the Legal and General, Life Insurance:

Easy to use, easy to update policy and great price Reviewed on: 14th October 2024

Reasonable price

I'm happy with the life insurance for myself and my husband. It's good cover and cheaper compared to others. I didn't get ten because they didn't cover me for critical cover as my mum had cancer and I've a gene which increases my risk so I get regular testing. Due to this they won't cover me for cancer which I didn't think was fair. If I didn't get gene tested I wouldn't know therefore I would have been covered and not getting tested regularly so athat higher risk. That's the only negative about legal and general.

Excellent Premium

Cheap premiums for a substantial life cover. Reviewed on: 9th February 2017

Quick application process if not long medical history

Online application was surprisingly quick and easy. The firm had all relevant questions and loaded quickly. Only delay caused by long medical history. Good ongoing contact via email and letter while awaiting approval. Reviewed on: 24th December 2016

A bit confusing

When I took out life insurance with legal and general, they had a very thorough check list to go through, but when following something up, they either didn't receive or didn't action the paperwork I spent, meaning I had to go through the whole process again. However, now it's all sorted it's been great. Reviewed on: 24th December 2016

Great customer service

Husband recently contacted them to advise of my change of name due to marriage. They were really good and helpful, updating other info and making sure we'd got the right cover. Makes a nice change to feel a valued customer from insurance companies Reviewed on: 30th October 2016

Never had a problem.

I had such a smooth time when starting my life insurance quote. The telephone times were really short when calling to speak to an advisor. Reviewed on: 13th September 2016

Good product, good price

Got this product through a broker. It covers my long-term medical condition and is a good price. Reviewed on: 12th September 2016

No major issues, good customer service

I've not had any cause to complain about my product or any issues since the start of my product. The quotes were clear with easy to understand product details. An issue I had when applying for it was cleared up right away. Reviewed on: 5th September 2016

Simple and Easy

Legal and General have caused me no trouble. It has been a straight forward process. When people check to see if I have the cheapest quote I always do. I just haven't died yet so I don't know how easy it will be for my family to get a payout. Reviewed on: 29th August 2016

Expensive

We took out L&G's life insurance with critical illness cover when we took out our mortgage about 18 months ago. Though the policy is fairly comprehensive, it is very expensive. On investigating this further in recent month it's possible to get much the same cover for a significantly cheaper premium. Reviewed on: 15th August 2016
